Fashion designer turned controversial influencer Maria B has outraged many users once again with unfiltered and controversial statements.
Recently an episode of the drama serial Sar e Rah aired where actor Muneeb Butt is shown as an intersex child, Sarang, and his father [played by Nabeel Zafar] is being gentle and sensitive to the situations to help his child get through life. The sweet interaction between a father and his intersex son on a beach and their conversation in became the center of attention for its tear-jerker and eye-opener scene.
However, the “progressive” step towards tolerance somehow triggered Maria B and she decided to pick the scene apart for highlighting its allegedly “USAID funded” themes to push the agenda of endorsing the LGBTQ+ narrative in Pakistani youth.
